Frigidaire Cooktop Code HE: Temperature Sensor Defect

Content status: Verified

Error code HE
Appliance Cooktop
Quick answer

A steady HE on a cold, switched-off zone signals a temperature sensor defect on a legacy induction cooktop.

Model compatibility: Frigidaire has used more than one control platform, so HE may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model documentation and record your full model number before acting.

Plain language

What this code means

Steady HE in display with zone cold and off: temperature sensor defect.

Spotting it

The display holds a steady HE although the cooking zone is cold and off.

Cause and models

Temperature sensor defect, on a legacy 30-inch ceramic glass induction cooktop (sheet 318200282 Rev B).

Corrective actions

  1. Technician tests the coil RTD at room temperature, expecting approx. 1K ohms, and replaces the coil if the value is off.
  2. Technician replaces the generator circuit board.
